All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
We finally have the QB we've been waiting for ..... he's not leaving Buffalo.
“It breaks your heart when someone leaves and you don’t know why.”
"It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you" Former President Donald Trump early Thursday touted the results of a new NPR/PBSNewsHour/Marist pollshowing him ahead of President Joe Biden by 8 percentage points among independents.
Yeah it’s actually the truth. We just released a bunch of quality expensive vets, and replaced them with backups and draft picks.
We’re currently 28th in the NFL with $2.1 million in remaining cap.
The salary cap is a real thing, and the % of cap eaten by the QB’s salary creates a real problem for teams, no matter how much you want to pretend it doesn’t.
We’re out of cap prison after this season bud.
QBs get paid and we’ll pay Josh and he’ll be very happy in Buffalo. Stop being so negative!

Op, other than Morse who are these quality players you keep referring to and what part of the salary cap reform don’t you get. They made mistakes with some of these contracts sooner of later they had to fix it. They decided sooner.
They got younger and we will have to see, but I think they got better in most areas especially at both safety positions. You can really believe Hyde and Poyer are still the same players they were 3 years ago, can you?

You’re asking the wrong question. It’s not about 3 years ago. The question is whether the guys we have now are equal or better to the guys we lost. There is zero proof that they are.
And again, my point was about the cap. If we were in good cap shape, do we let all those guys go? I highly doubt it. They were cap moves, not necessarily the best football moves.
And back to the original topic, it looks like Allen can’t opt out, but IIRC, every QB that’s gotten paid since Allen has gotten more than him, and even if that’s not 100% correct, there are numerous QB’s making more than Allen who don’t deserve to.
Mahomes should make more than Allen. You could make a good argument for Burrow, Hurts and Hebert but it’s debatable. Stroud and Lawrence will likely get there but aren’t quite there yet.
I feel like this will eventually be a problem. At some point, Josh is gonna go “how the **** are Kirk Cousins and Kyler Murray making more than me?”

Good argument...for them to be making more than Josh? LOL!. No.

They’ve only played a couple of times but Burrow has whooped Allen easily every time. Hurts has gotten to a SB. Josh hasn’t.
But if you’re right, it just makes my point stronger. Josh is eventually gonna get frustrated that he’s getting paid less than guys who aren’t as good as him.
